Ray Bradbury named the character Guy Montag after the paper manufacturing company Montag, which made German firemen helmets. This choice of name reflects the themes of fire, destruction, and control present in the novel.
The book was tilted "Fahrenheit 451" because it is said that this is the temperature at which books burn (temperature at which paper ignites). A literary license was taken by Ray Bradbury when he named "Fahrenheit 451" (novel, 1953) after the temperature at which paper ignites (the range is about 218°-246°C or 424-474°F).
He's a hero because he sees past a corrupt society. We know that he feels the need to "fix" this deteriorating world, but he can't do it alone. The real heroes are the nomads in the end of the book. They are the true vessels of knowledge that will live on until the world accepts them.
To show the importance of literature, NOT about government censorship.
